By far my favorite book in the series. The majority of the book was banter and I loved every second of it. Ana Huang is good at writing emotional intimacy scenes. Where the characters can still have intimacy without the physical in the mix. There are quite a few spicy scenes but I loved the book overall. I enjoyed getting to see both sides of the characters. The plot was amazing writing and every chapter was something new. I love Josh and Jules and their relationship. Them finding peace and being with each other ♥ Favorite couple so far!!

De momento este es el libro que más he disfrutado de la serie. Me queda por leer Twisted Lies y no voy a mentir, le tengo muchas ganas a  Christian Harper. Como personaje secundario me resulta interesante, a ver como prota.

 Dicho eso, volvamos a Twisted Hate:
He disfrutado la trama de este libro desde el principio porque Jules me robó el corazoncito y su pasado me rompía el alma en mil pedazos, así que estaba con ella deseándole lo mejor contra viento y marea.
Josh...estaba ahí. Diría que lo soportaba, pero sería demasiado amable.
Me gustaba verlo con otros personajes y creo que tenía mucha química con Alex y su second chance bromance.
Pero mientras que con Alex en Twisted Love pensaba: "tio, ve a terapia o algo y supera esta etapa emo que tienes"; con Josh pensaba: "no hay nada que se pueda hacer, hay que sacrificarlo".
(Aun lo pienso).
A favor de mi propuesta de eliminación total de este hombre ficticio, presentaré las pruebas de que Alex Volkov, psicópata ya conocido, dijo: "buah, tio, te pasas". Si Alex piensa que te estás pasando, teniendo una casa a las afueras digna de un asesino en serie...Es que estás mal.

Terminaré esta breve opinión con una reflexión: Si los protagonistas masculinos de la serie Twisted se quedaran encerrados en una habitación, y dando por hecho que Josh ha desaparecido en misteriosas circunstancias por cierto acto perpetrado en este libro...¿Solo habría silencio o se comunicarían entre gruñidos?

This is an enemies to lovers, secret relationship with the best friend’s brother. I saw Jules and Josh’s relationship coming from the first book, but I really enjoyed learning more about Jules’ backstory. I also love that each of these books has some sort of action/mystery to them. I’m excited to read the last one soon.
